What's up everybody?!
Let us introduce ourselves!
We are the maestras chingonas of LTDM (La Tiendita de Motita). Our squad of 5 educators live and taught in the South Valley.

We believe in the healing benefits of cannabis and each one of us has a story and connection to this magical plant! Come down and hit us up!
